#Subscribe to Smooth - My Routine

It has been long since I wrote a post, so first things first, a big hello! Previously, I told you all that I have taken the #SubscribetoSmooth challenge. So, this time I will tell you how I managed to incorporate it into my routine!

- It was a 30 day challenge, therefore I'm taking 45 days ago, as I've been sick to death frown emoticon

- I'm not new to shaving (Especially my legs and underarms), I've been doing it for a few years now.

- Though I used Gilette shaving gel for the first time during this challenge - I had earlier used coconut oil or hair conditioner.

- I don't have fast growing body hair, so in a month I need to shave a maximum of two times, closer to twice in 45 days.

Now, coming to the experience with the Gillete Venus range... In a word, simply superb! The Satin Care shaving gel is like MAGIC! It has definitely found a permanent place in my cabinet. You just need a tiny amount, which will lather really well. The Venus razor gives you a very close shave, and believe me, the combination works like a dream!

The grip of the razor is firm, but it feels soft on the skin as well, so no nicks and no cuts. Yay! grin emoticon

I use a single cartridge for two uses usually, both of which include my arms, legs and underarms. This makes it quite affordable, especially if you have slow growing body hair like mine. And even though there is such a close shave, there is no ingrown hair.

Overall, I would say go for it girls, and say to shaving- Its convenient, affordable and leaves you with smooth skin.

Next and the final post on #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge will contain few more tips and we will be busting more myths around shaving.

#SubscribeToSmooth - Tips & Debunking Some Myths

In the last post of #SubscribeToSmooth, we told you about what we learned at that amazing event, also we broke the news that we have taken the challenge, and how it went for us in the first week.

Taking The #SubscribeToSmooth Challenge

A few days ago, there was a very exciting event for Delhi beauty bloggers, hosted by Gillette Venus. As I wasn't keeping well, I couldn't make it to the event itself, but I was green with envy when I heard my fellow bloggers talking about it non stop. Never have I cursed myself for my bad health so much!

The event was very informative, and interactive. A panel comprising of renowned aesthetic physician Dr. Rashmi Shetty, Pro make-up artist Namrata Soni, and the beautiful and tall bollywood actress Kriti Sanon, talked about shaving and also busted some huge myths around it.

Kriti Sanon, during the panel discussion, talked about Gillette's Venus, and said she feels very confident while choosing these products, as they are skin friendly, even for those women with sensitive skin. She also believes that shaving is the best form of hair removal as it is convenient and often hassle free, compared to the other (and usually more painful) methods.

The lovely ladies on the panel also said that in order to get smooth-as-cream legs, one should always use a quality razor and make sure that the skin is properly moisturized before shaving.

The shaving kit which was given away comprised of a Gillette Venus razor, Gillette Satin Care shaving gel with aloe vera, and a pack of 3 shaving blade cartridges. It has been a week since I began using it, and I feel my legs are much smoother, and in-grown hairs have vanished.

I honestly feel that this way of hair removal is more convenient, hassle free, easy and inexpensive. This was my first week of the Subscribe to Smooth challenge, and next we are planning to debunk some myths for you ladies. So stay tuned for more updates!
